Stayed Jun 14, 2026My grandfather worked for the SOO Line his entire life, retired when it was purchased by CN. This was such a fun opportunity! We enjoyed a 25 mile bike ride on the trails as well!

Stayed Jun 5, 2025The Caboose is amazing! We felt like little kids checking everything out and reading the history the owner has provided about the caboose. Great balance of keeping true to history while also being a comfortable place.

Stayed May 14, 2025We were so delightfully surprised to see how it was restored and turned into a place to stay. My husband (SOO LINE nut) was in awe as to how the caboose looked so much like it did from years ago. He read the materials (on site) that told and showed how it was moved from the train yard to its current location. Great information. Another surprise was realizing that it was not too far from a main line, you can watch an Amtrak and others come rolling through, horns sounding with full excitement from the deck. Great adventure for us. Will plan on future visits, but staying longer.

Stayed Aug 13, 2024What a fun and facinating olace to stay. The Caboose was redone but they kept as much of the original things as they could. Its cozy and unique. It was clean and well stocked.

Stayed Jul 26, 2024I love the location near the bike trail. It is a unique and interesting place to stay! We had everything we needed for the weekend. They make good use of the space with it being small. Glad we chose this for something different!

Stayed Jun 19, 2024The caboose VRBO was like staying in a tiny house. There are six steps to get up to the platform as it is on its original wheels and a set of railroad tracks. Unfortunately, we had damp coolish weather, so could not enjoy the fire pit. The sofa near the bed seemed a bit soft and old and could be updated. spouse complained of too much scent in the sheets and pillowcases. Only a block from the Elroy Sparta trail and information.
